The Presidents Reception.


WASHINGTON, January 27.-The Pre-
sident's reception to Congress and the
judiciary-tbe second Of this seasons
soirees place at the White House
tonight There was large throng OF
distinguished people present, including
a great number of congressman, but
there was not the crowding which oc-
cure d at the previous reception.
The different rooms were tastefulIy.
but, with the exception of the East
room, not deliberately decorated. Palms
and tropical plants were the chief dec
orations, and cut flowers were only
used to adorD the East room. The Red
room looked exceptionally charming.
Only few dark-green tropical plants
were used as decorations, but they were
so tastefully placed as to beautifully
relieve the garnet furniture and orna-
ments Of the room. The Marine Band
was stationed in the lobby, and fur
nished classic and popular music. The
presentations were made by Colonel
Wilson, United States army, and
T. G.. DuvalI, United States navy.
The President was assisted in receiving
by Mrs. Cleveland, Mrs. Manning,
Mrs Endicott, Mrs. Villas, and Mrs.
Lamar. Among those who occupied
places in the Blue room behind the re-
ceiying party were Mrs. Folsom, Miss
Stornberg, of Buffalo; Miss Kingsfield,
of Oswego; all the Cabinet Ministers
except Secretaries Whitney, Endicott,
and Garland; General Sheridan, Admi-
raj Porter, Chlef-Justice Waite, Sena-
tor and Mrs. Sherman, Speaker and
Mrs. Carlisle, and Mr. and Mrs. Corne-
hus Vanderbilt.

Mr. Belmont indicated preference
for the House bill, but thought
there WI. no reason for haste, and that
they could be improved. Mr.. Rice, OF
Massachusetts,, Thought the Senate
bill went further than was gene

as much rs the House hill. The Senate
bill excluded not only Canadian pro

The French Steamship Line is dong
more work than any of the ocean com
panies, having large gangs, principally
green hands; and the White Star also
has considerable force. Late in the
day more or less men went TO work un-
loading all the ocean steamers which
arrived this morning; but they are work
ing Mt disadvantage.
The striking 'longshoremen and coal
shovellers had large parade tonight
previous to their mass-meeting nj
Cooper Union. They included men
from New York, Jersey City, and
Brooklyn. They formed ut Pythagoras
Hall with about 800 men in line.
The music WAS drum-and-fife
corps. They marched through Broadway
to Eighth street, then TO Cooper Union.
There was no disorder. Lower Broad
way was deserted, as the stores had
closed up for the day. When the pa
rade arrived at Cooper Union they
were unable to gain admission, as the
hall was packed; so an outdoor meet
ing was organized.
